Description

If you’ve ever found yourself saying to yourself (or others):




 “He’s just figuring things out…”

“I just see so much potential in him…”

“He said he needs to work on himself”


“He’s scared to be hurt again”

This episode is for you.


You’ll learn how to recognize when you’re dating someone for their potential, not their reality, and how that dynamic is likely pulling you further away from the secure, healthy relationship you truly want.


Inside this episode, you’ll learn:




  -6 signs you’re dating for potential (even if it doesn’t feel like it)


-The sneaky ways your nervous system can get attached to fixing someone


-The cost of pouring your energy into men who feel like a project




-What to focus on instead so you attract someone who’s already ready
